Overall Ratings Name Previous Rating Current Rating Progress towards achievement of PDO  Moderately Satisfactory  Moderately Satisfactory Overall Implementation Progress (IP)  Moderately Satisfactory  Moderately Satisfactory Overall Risk Rating  Substantial  Substantial Implementation Status and Key Decisions The Urban Local Government Strengthening Program is on track to achieve the development objectives. The program has entered into the implementation stages of the works programs, financed through the Urban Performance Grants. Most cities are now utilizing these funds for roads, drainage, markets, and improvement to solid waste management systems. The President's Office -- Regional Administration and Local Government has requested an extension of the program closing date by 12 months to allow implementation of subprojects which are currently under procurement. The Government’s fifth annual performance assessment, which is the basis for allocations of the Urban Performance Grants to the local governments for FY17/18, has been finalized and is under review by The President's Office – Regional Administration and Local Government and the World Bank. While the institutional assessment score in the fifth annual performance assessment slipped this year, it is expected that the program will meet its development objectives by the closing date. The World Bank conducted an Implementation Support Mission for the Urban Local Government Strengthening Program, from April 5 to April 7, 2017. The mission convened key stakeholders from the 18 participating urban local govenrment authorities who presented on the implementation progress of infrastructure projects as well as success and challenges for FY15/16. The mission also participated in a field trip to Moshi Municipal Council and Arusha City Council on a peer-to-peer learning experience on infrastructure project implementation, urban planning systems, property tax collection, and solid waste management.

The score of 71.22 listed under actual (previous) was for the 3rd Annual Performance Assessment.

The PAD states that it should be the percentage of infrastructure executed out of what will be determined through the annual ULGA local participatory planning process, but information on what was planned is not currently available. Overall Comments PDO indicator 1: The last ISR was updated with data from the Mid-Term Review which took place in May 2016. At that time only the score for Disbursement Linked Indicator #2 from the 3rd Annual Performance assessment was available (which was 71.2). Since then, there have been two additional assessments: the average score for Disbursement Linked Indicator #2 under the 4th Annual Performance Assessment was 76.2 and for the 5th Annual Performance Assessment 74.3, which was a reduction in absolute terms and relative terms, as the target scores were designed to rise from year to year. PDO indicator 2: It is unclear what methodology was used to calculate infrastructure built/rehabilitated using Urban Performance Grant funds thus far. The PAD states that it should be the percentage of infrastructure executed out of what will be determined through the annual urban local government authority local participatory planning process, but information on what was planned is not currently available.

Intermediate indicator: Direct Program beneficiaries (number), of which female (percentage): The indicator on direct program beneficiaries is lower than expected due to methodological issues related to how project beneficiaries were initially calculated. The PAD includes projected targets based on population, but during the course of preparation of this ISR, individual urban local govenrment authorities provided population estimates based on wards where urban performance grants were used to build infrastructure works. This is a more precise estimate than what the PAD suggests but the numbers are lower than the expected target. The team proposes to use this methodology moving forward to monitor progress. 6/28/2017 Public Disclosure Copy Page 5 of 5
